Title: Nellie Darling Wilson
Post by: Inchworm on Tuesday 16 January 18 22:15 GMT (UK)
Hello,
I'm sorry to sound so vague but I'm looking for the death of Nellie Darling Wilson (b. 1874 Middx. England). I believe that she went to Australia with her husband Charles John Wilson and two children.
Regards,
Inchworm

Thank you SO much for your help.
The last I had for Nellie was on the 1901 Census in England. So I guess that they emigrated after that.
Their son, Frederick Charles B. Wilson is on the 1911 in England, staying with his granddad. Looks like he went later maybe?
They also had a daughter Violet Minnie Wilson born 1899 in Birmingham, Eng. Don't know if there were any children born in Australia.

Thank you for the cutting Ros. I'm now starting to build up a picture of their life in Australia. This was news to me that they had emigrated.
